Objective To explore the clinical value of combined detection of CA15-3, TSGF, OPN and CA125 in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. Methods The serum specimens from 187 patients with breast cancer (cancer group) were collected, tumor markers CA15-3 and CA125 were detected with electrochemiluminescence method, TSGF was detected with chemocolorimetry, and OPN was detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Compared with 50 cases of patients with benign breast disease (control group), The relationship between these marker and clinical stage, recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer were analyzed. Results The serum levels of CA15-3, CA125, TSGF and OPN in cancer group were significantly higher than those in control group (P <0.05). Four markers in high clinical stage(Ⅲ and Ⅳ stage)[(83.21±28.67), (89.13±32.34), (278.66±137.23) U/ml and (97.4±11.7) ng/ml, respectively] were higher than those in low stage( Ⅰ and Ⅱ stage) [(60.03±19.35), (58.21±17.56), (155.79±113.11) U/ml and (77.5±10.81) ng/ml,respectively] (P <0.05), and those in lymphnode metastasis patients and in recurrence patients were significantly higher than those in corresponding groups (P <0.05). The sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection of four tumor markers were 96.3 % (180/187) and 80.0 % (40/50), respectively. The average time of combined detection of serum tumor markers was 2 months ahead of the mammographic features in the recurrence patients with breast cancer. Conclusion The dynamic combined detection of CA15-3, TSGF, OPN and CA125 are better markers for monitoring recurrence and metastasis of breast cancer,which are benefit to early diagnosis and interference.

Objective To investigate the relationship between neurogenic bowel dysfunction (NBD) and substance P in rats suffering from spinal cord injury (SCI). Methods 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighted (220±40) g, were randomly divided into three groups: sham group (n=20), normal group (n=20) and model group (n=20) and then were subdivided into subgroups of 24 h, 1 week, 3 weeks, and 5 weeks respectively after SCI. SCI model was established at thoracic 10 segment of rat with NYU impactor device. The colon tissue of the rats was resected and stored. Substance P in serum and tissue was measured by ELISA. The tissue was examined by real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting to analyze the expression of substance P. Results The colon intestinal transmission function decreased and delineated at minimum value at 3 weeks in the model group. There was statistical significance with respect to the content of substance P in serum and tissue between the sham group and model group at 3 weeks. The expression of substance P in the sham group was (3.12±0.51) times of the model group (P<0.05). Conclusion Substance P may take part in NBD after SCI in rats.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of S-1 combined with oxaliplatin (SOX regimen) in treatment of the patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods A total of 106 patients with advanced pancreatic cancer in Qingdao Fuwai Hospital from April 2015 to June 2017 were randomly divided into the treatment group (53 cases) and the control group (53 cases) according to the random number table method. Patients in the control group were treated with S-1 combined with cisplatin treatment, and patients in the treatment group were treated with SOX regimen. The cell proportion of CD3+, CD4+, CD8+and CD4+/CD8+before treatment and after 2 cycles of treatment were detected by using flow cytometry of both groups. The clinical curative effects, immunity and adverse reactions of both groups were compared by usingχ2 test and t test. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make the survival analysis. Results After two cycles of treatment, there were 4 cases of complete remission (CR), 23 cases of partial remission (PR), 17 cases of stable disease (SD), 9 cases of progression disease (PD) in the treatment group, and 0 case of CR, 18 cases of PR, 20 cases of SD, 15 cases of PD in the control group. The rate of CR+PR in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group [50.94%(27/53) vs. 33.96%(18/53)], and there was a statistical difference (χ2=5.936, P<0.05). There was a significant difference in the cell proportion of CD4+and ratio of CD4+/CD8+between the two groups before and after treatment [the treatment group: (27.31±2.48)% vs. (37.05±2.53)%, χ2= 6.491,P< 0.01; 0.91 ±0.23 vs. 1.53 ±0.50, χ2 = 5.913, P< 0.01; the control group: (27.43 ±2.47)% vs. (30.32 ± 2.41)%,χ2= 11.214, P<0.01; 0.90±0.22 vs. 1.22±0.34,χ2=7.992, P<0.01]. After 2 cycles of treatment, the cell proportion of CD4+and ratio of CD4+/CD8+of the treatment group were higher than those of the control group, and there were statistical differences (χ2=5.309, P<0.01;χ2= 7.112, P< 0.01). The incidence rate of side effects had no significant difference in both groups after two cycles of treatment [22.64% (12/53) vs. 18.87% (10/53), χ2= 1.924, P> 0.05]. The progression-free survival time in the treatment group was longer than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions SOX regimen has a favorable effect on the patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. It can help to improve the immunity and prolong the survival time of the patients.
